Of course if you organise to take your wife out for her anniversary you know she will enjoy it more if she waits a few more hours.
Every good woman knows that gun stuff comes first. So I visited Kickinback yesterday before heading into the city.
My Cheesecake type mechanical skill levels make watching this stuff very interesting. He made the pillars and then installed them. Watching the aluminium bar turn into pillars was fascinating in itself
Cheers Glen. Just the flanellette to go

It will make the flannelette stage more challenging if it doesn't

But how big a hole do you need to mill to get the trigger in if it is stuck

the only one I can remember making was cutting another groove in a pillar. And I was winding him up
Though its not a real challenge getting a rise out of him
